SummaryUnitBoost replaces the generative LLM manager in compound LLM systems with a non-generative merge operator: a task-given unit map, constrained argmax assembly, and explicit residual for next rounds. On three benchmarks it beats input-matched generative managers by 0.048–0.076 absolute points and improves six compound-system configurations.
Why it mattersConcrete alternative to LLM-as-manager in compound agent setups. Order-free operator with testable failure conditions and quantified gains over generative coordination.
